Radio team offensive towards Charlie Whiting, Vettel risks disqualification
The curse directed at the race director in the Mexico City race could cost the German dearly
di Piero Ladisa31 October 2016
Sebastian Vettel's curse, addressed to race director Charlie Whiting on the finish line of the Mexican Grand Prix ("This message is for Charlie, v*********!”, this is the radio team indicted), could cost the German dearly.
Despite the ritual apologies expressed with a cool head (“Unfortunately, in those situations the emotional aspect prevails, I was nervous about the behavior shown on the track by Verstappen. I apologize to Charlie and I hope that these apologies are enough”), the four-time world champion violated article 151C of the regulation and now risks disqualification for the next race scheduled in Brazil, on the Interlagos track, on November 13th.
